2025 Domaine de la Pepiere - Muscadet Sur Lie La Pepie (750ml)

Classic granite-driven Muscadet from one of the appellation's benchmark biodynamic estates. The core of "La Pépie" comes from the ten-hectare heart of the Pépière domaine in the Clisson cru, rounded out with fruit from Château-Thébaud and organically farmed purchased grapes. Hand-harvested and whole-cluster pressed, the juice settles naturally before spontaneous fermentation with native yeasts in stainless steel. The wine then ages sur lie in large underground glass-lined cement tanks, left in contact with its spent yeast through the winter for texture and freshness, and bottled without fining or filtration. 2025 was an early, excellent Loire harvest, and this bottling shows it: bright, saline, and precise, with green apple, citrus and a bracing mineral cut that makes it a natural match for oysters and other shellfish.
